JavaScript: The Brain of the Web

HTML creates the structure, CSS makes it look good, but JavaScript brings it to life. Without JS, the web would be just static documents.

What is DOM Manipulation?

The Document Object Model (DOM) is the bridge between your code and the HTML. JavaScript allows us to change text, styles, and attributes in real-time.

JavaScript Example
// Select an element
const btn = document.querySelector('.btn');
// Add interaction
btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
alert('Button Clicked!');
});

Modern ES6+ Features

JavaScript has evolved significantly. With features like Arrow Functions, Async/Await, and Destructuring, writing code is cleaner than ever.

ES6 Example
// Old Function
function greet(name) {
return 'Hello ' + name;
}
// Arrow Function
const greet = (name) => `Hello ${name}`;
